Feedback Strategies

Key to Success: Pixy.org

The two articles I read were "How to Give Feedback Without Sounding Like a Jerk" and "Why Do So Many Managers Avoid Giving Praise?". I really relate to both of these articles because I have always felt like a jerk when giving negative feedback in the past, and I also have had managers and teachers who have avoided giving praise, which led me to not want to receive feedback at all. I know that when someone is giving me feedback it helps to know that they do not believe that they are a pedestal above me, like mentioned in my first article this can make people feel inferior. I also know that when in a workplace, or school, receiving positive feedback for things you have done well, will make you more capable of receiving negative feedback for things you need to improve. My overall view on these feedback strategies are that feedback is important for success, but in order for feedback to work, the feedback must be given successfully and respectfully. When giving feedback later in this course, I hope that I will be able to follow these suggestions in order to promote success not only for the other students, but for me as well.

In March of 2020 my plans, as well as everyone else's, took a turn. The dreaded COVID took away both of the days I had worked so hard for. Although both of my graduations were taken away from me, I still finished the year and received my degree in Biology Pre-Med, I then went on to attended OU. Being that this year was my first year of college out of high school, I began as a "freshman",  starting with 60 credit hours classifying me as a junior, and changing my major to Psychology Pre-Med now puts me as a sophomore. All very confusing, I know! I have always been the type of pe
